We all know what Respect means. But what does it mean to you as you navigate your professional roles, responsibilities, interactions, and career aspirations?

@Suzi: Great feedback. Thanks for chiming in!

For the bold, nothing but some good old HTML magic

When it comes to respect I have a couple of strong beliefs.

The first belief is that Respect needs to be clearly articulated in organizational values. Quite often organizations assume that individuals understand the fundamental requirement to be respectful and hence avoid including this in their values.

The second belief is that most organizations suffer because of a few individuals who are openly disrespectful, almost disdainful, about others. These individuals do not operate within the 'implied' values framework of being respectful with others.

I strongly believe that respect as a value should not be considered obvious and needs to be articulated to ensure that the ground rules are clear for one and all.

Thank you Andrew for posting this discussion about respect.
I hope people can recognize others based on effort and work done, instead of only on achievements or milestones.
We need to respect team members' perspectives from their functional and project roles.
Eliminate bias or prejudice, then relate and work on each other's strengths and weakness.

Nope ctrl b didnt work by the way!
The way to do it, Suzi, is to use HTML tags. At the start of the boldfaced element, you put <b>. At the end of the boldfaced element, you put </b>. You can also do italics the same way, just replace the b for an i.

Even within the second respect in Kiron's list has multiple levels. You have the basic respect of the human being (Eric's civility?).

You then have the respect of the person for their knowledge, abilities or experience. In a sense, this is a lesser form of respect. That's because you are respecting a specific aspect of the person, not the whole. Hopefully, both forms of respect are given at the same time.

We all learned something, Suzi. I had to figure out how I could show the HTML code without having it executed on the page. I've played around with many HTML tags on the site. There are a few that don't work, like tables, unfortunately. The one I like best is embedding a picture in your post.
